Top 5 Forum Threads of the Week
By: Jeff Sherwood
The masses may want a super fight between Ultimate Fighting Championship titleholders Jon Jones and Anderson Silva, but the fighters themselves do not. The thought that arguably the sport’s two most dominant champions might never meet in the cage will undoubtedly leave some fans saddened. For now, Jones will focus on his upcoming matchup with Dan Henderson at UFC 151, and Silva will wait for a new contender to emerge at 185 pounds.
Plenty of other subjects made the rounds on the Sherdog.net forums this week, including Michael Bisping’s decision to take aim at Tim Boetsch, the latest on Chael Sonnen, the continuation of the Ronda Rousey-Miesha Tate feud and testosterone replacement therapy.

SRN Rewind: Miesha Tate
By: Jack Encarnacao
When she was a kid, Miesha Tate smashed a boy in the face who was giving her a hard time.
She walked on to the high school wrestling mats and overcame a less-than-warm reception from her weary male counterparts. In college, she learned submissions in an MMA club with scant female participants.
It’s been a symbolic athletic career for Tate, who’s become a face of female mixed martial arts as Strikeforce’s 135-pound champion. Ahead of her anticipated title defense against Ronda Rousey on March 3, Tate joins Jack Encarnacao on the Sherdog Radio Network “Rewind” to talk about coming up in male-dominated sports and how she earned her bones.
Don’t miss “The Sitdown” with Miesha Tate, Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on the SRN.
